With this recipe, you can prepare a delicious capirotada, which is a typical sweet from Puerto Vallarta. Although there are many ways to make it, this is the easiest and my favorite.

To make a syrup: bring the water to a boil with the piloncillo, cinnamon, cloves, and anise. Let it simmer until you have a honey-like consistency. Slice and fry the bread on both sides with lard. In a clay pot, place a layer of tortillas as a base, then a layer of golden bread, and add peanuts, raisins, cheese (you can also add coconut if you like), and drizzle with a bit of the syrup. Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used and drizzle with the syrup. Bake in the oven at 180°C for 20 minutes, covering with aluminum foil.
